@liemers.bsky.social#ALevelMaths How do people select who does the Maths Olympiad for Girls? I have 5 students who all want to do the Olympiad in preference to the Competition. Nothing to tell them apart on GCSE / previous UKMT experience and it’s too early in the term to really know them! Any ideas?
@neechmaths.bsky.socialIn #mathstoday yr 2 #Alevelmaths did this domain and range card sort from MEI, lots of opportunity to fill in some gaps in their graph sketching and transformation skills before we moved onto composite functions.
@paddymacmahon.comA coordinate geometry question for discussion in #ALevelMaths #FurtherMaths #MathsToday. Most plumped for using perpendicular gradients, equations of lines and simultaneous equations. One went for a trig solution. I like this method (none of the class went for it... 😕):
@jbrough13.bsky.socialIn #MathsToday my Y13 #ALevelMaths students worked through Inverse Functions, we did some group work around the room on big whiteboards, sketching and finding domain and range.
Onto inverse trig functions tomorrow!
@charlottemaths.bsky.socialLove this. Could be nice with y12 too #ALevelMaths

@ridermeister.bsky.socialAnother early question for new Year 12 FM pupils. This one is intended to show them that mathematics (at A-Level) doesn't really have 'hard' topics, we can make it all 'hard'!
@liemers.bsky.social#ALevelMaths Does anyone know if there is a poster for the @meimaths.bsky.social Ritangle competition that starts in October? I want to start drumming up some excitement early!
@ridermeister.bsky.socialWhy would I ask my new Year 12 pupils to solve the below in our first lesson of the academic year?
@ronpaq.bsky.socialI am teaching linear simultaneous equations tomorrow to a strong Year 12 class who will likely have remembered it well. But it's in the course, and some will need the revision. Does anyone know any good extension/underground maths tasks? #mathstoday #alevelmaths
